If I hadn't been a war then I wouldn't know a majority of my friends. I would have never touched a melee job and might be 75 right now. If I hadn't subbed war on whm when I first got the quest I would not know those that told me it was wrong and later became my friends.

I want to give a formal apology to those that I've mistreated or aggrivated in the past. Dorp and various others. My bad, I'm sorry :blush

If I didn't have a static with every single job I chose to level, I'd probably be lvl 75 by now. I'd possibly be happier with the job I wanted to level in the first place.... Dark Knight (I'm not saying PLD is bad or I hate the job. It was just painful to level it. I got a ton of hate from people thinking Mithras should never tank... ever. So, I'm going to prove something to myself.).

A lot of things changed... so much drama... I lost a lot of friends that way. I just wish people are a bit more understanding with certain things and learn to forgive/forget. That's all. It's the past. Why hold on to it? Why start the new year like this?

I need not say to whom this message is directed to. You know who you are... and I'm sorry things weren't always peachy and dandy. We are humans, after all. Nobody's perfect.

Mithra can tank : ) I know because I use to be in Nohn's party.

Just taking a sec to stop by and check on my friends and this post made me think

If I wasn't a taru, I don't know what would have happened. I think people would have thought I was the weirdest Hume ever (>'')> I wouldn't take any of my decisions back if I had to do it all over again. Well, I might not have borrowed so much money from my brother Ghenn to fight the avatars at 20 ^^;

[Soulstar]

Hmm....

I probably would've been where I am now : Except for the LS and all, I think I would've taken the same route, as I've seen aspects of all the jobs now, and liked some, but overall the friends I've met along the way have been the overall factor. I remember the first true friend I had... That I got to play with alot was Jinxed (sp?) We used to play alot on all our jobs and eventually he slowly drifted away from FF... (About 4-5 months into it) Then I got this odd mail from him saying that he was going to be back, (Which he never did come back ; and was shocked at what lvl I was. (I think I was about 30 lvls or so higher than him ;

As for if I changed to, or kept another job that I enjoyed? Well, I'd have to say that I enjoyed being a BLM to a extent, as it was my first job to hit 30 and I did have MOST of the spells (Mainly the element and all the element debuffs)... If I stayed on that course as a BLM... HM. I'm not too sure where I'd be, as the world tends to be overpopulated at times with BLM's.

And now for your viewing pleasure, the kirby dance!

Bleh anyhow later

This is good question...I would have met many different people if I just took thf to 60 and not sam--but I sometimes regret that I didnt take up a mage job earlier....I really enjoy it and I might have been 75 and in a HNMLS if i took either blm or whm into consideration...I also may have been different if that linkshell recruiter Canler never gave me my pearl lol..I could have thrown it away and I would have never known how to get it back...But I am lucky and blessed to have met so many good people ^^ (only 1 bad person--shall remain nameless) WOOT CAITSITH #1

[Gippel]

this is a good question lol....
i guess ill find out when i start over again....
im goin for a WAR main maybe or PLD

[Tempyst]

I was just thinking about this the other day.

If I hadn't decided I wanted to level Samurai as my alternate job, things would be vastly different right now- I might have even quit the game. Too much for me to go into right now, though.

[Blaxmyth]

Ive always played Pld in any online game ive played. Cant realy say why i keep choosing it. Just the need to protect something i guess lol. I used to think it was the roughest job in the business till i started messing with my RDM. Heck of a lota stuff to keep up with >.<. Tanks tank, healers heal, and Rdm falls under the "everything + other" catagorey. Still ill always be a PLD.

Hey Tempyst i saw ur threads on Alla-k, including the one with Amdingo and Manas. (Manas=Blaxmyth btw ^^) Man
Man wish u coulda put the rest of the conversation on there. Dingos still pissed at that guy XD

[Banzai]

Dorp :
Ever wonder..

If you had maybe been a differnet job.. would you have the same friends? would you be lvl75? would your path have changed?

I wonder these things to myself very much. As I look back, I see what I have done, and still see what I havent done. I wonder, was it because I was a thief? What if i was a blackmage? or Something else.

Most of our fates within FFXI, really come down to the very first things we did. Yet I know I cannot change mypast, but I often wonder..

I'd be wondering the same thing, just looking through a different window.

[Epicus]

If I didn't have BRD as one of my jobs... I'd have no "friends". /laugh

[Sonnet~]

I think if i didnt have my LS i probably would of quit soooo long ago. They are pretty much the only friends i have in game. XD

[Spartan]

If I had not worried about gear and gimped myself then I'm sure I would be 75 now.

[Demetrius]

If I had only decided that one day 8 months ago not to play all that day, and level a bunch of times, I would have never met Dorp...too bad I did >.<

Lol I would have quit by now if I ever chose WHM, unfortunately I am lvling it soon for another PLD subjob lol, but mage isn't really the job for me, maybe SMN onry

[Invincible]

I wonder how things would have been had I toughed it out with my Tarutaru whm, Peerless. I played for about 3 weeks as a taru whm but gave up at level 14 or so. (I kept dieing and couldn't solo). I made an elvaan mnk and lvled it with ease. I wanted to go mnk all the way but decided to do the Sam quest for fun. I tried sam and loved it and became a Samurai until lvl 42 (Dec 2003). At this point I got annoyed at drks out damaging me, so I thought I'd get the best of tp storage and the attack bonuses of drk by subbing it. After unlocking drk I was lvl 30 within days. I was sixty in a few weeks(Mar 2004 I think). Drk was just easy to level. At sixty I decided drk would be my main because getting 60 TP back after guillotine was the shizzle. I could just meditate and spam guillotine all day. But then SE updated TP storage a few weeks later forcing me to level thf as a sub for drk. Drk was no longer a fun job to me so i dabbled in just about everything. After this point there is no logical reason for leveling the jobs I did. But I often think about things such as what if I stayed taru from the beginning or what if my RL friends never quit. What job(s) would I be playing right now? I bet if I picked a single job to play and crafted more often i'd be a gillionaire. Let's not even get into the "what if ffxi never existed" question because I'd probably be out of college already or something lol.

Ewwww not being galka would change everything. If you've never tried it, don't knock it. I wouldn't have been nearly as good of a tank back when I was a noob and had nothing. I wouldn't have gotten into Exile a year ago when my highest job was 33 MNK, and now I would be worrying about getting into some HNM LS like a lot of 75s are. And I am soooooooo glad that I happened to run across Exile. From what I can tell most HNM LS are very serious and item oriented. We are all friends believe it or not.

[Tarukola]

i wouldn't be the same person if i didnt choose WHM, although i found out WHMs have no chance to solo and survive as apposed to RNGS, thats why im going RNG now, ill still have the friends i made as a WHM, i have no clue as to where they are now though, when i come back ill be sure to hunt them down,
